barack obama acted like he really believed in what he said. maybe not the first debate, but beyond that, where was the passion on our side? really standing up for what we believed in and willing to take it to the public and not laying it safe. i think we have played it safe a lot of places. the folks that went big turned out to be winners. >> i am itching to get in. one bigink there is thing. i am sure you have a great list of 10 things, and i am sure they are all very true. i have my own list. but i do actually think that you can interpret this election as having been about one thing. what was that thing? it was about who was responsible for the financial crisis of 2008. on the policies that led up to it. the majority of voters, even though they knew the economy is terrible, they still blamed it on george w. bush. the republicans and romney, who i loved and would have made a great president, he never really made the case that the financial crisis of 2000 it was not caused by capitalism, not an excess of market zeal or greed on wall street, th

in the week that obama went to israel and met with netanyahu and they talked about the iranian nuclear threat from iran shortly after they announced we were cutting our naval aircraft carrier battle groups from two down to one. cut our naval forces there in half. don't cross that red line and at the same time, pulled a carrier out. the truman was scheduled to deploy to replace it, and it is still locked up, tied up at the dock in norfolk. they are cutting the defense budget by huge amounts. one of the great things we have in ronald reagan was a man that understood what was needed in terms of our national security. the first call i made after desert storm was over with when i was defense secretary was to ronald reagan in california. i thanked him. what i said, frankly, was mr. president, i want to thank you 600 toilet seats you bought. he said, "darn it, they didn't cost $600!" and then he got the joke. our capacity to win in desert in no small part to the choices he made 10 years previously. we have pilots in the air force that don't get to fly anymore. oftentimes squadrons are grounde

when you referred to barack obama as a food stamp president, tell me what you meant. that a vast majority who get food stamps are white. that could not possibly have been a reference to race. it takes the media to determine what i meant. he has followed policies which have limited job growth for the last four years. this is the weakest recovery of any period since the great depression, and if you do not get a recovery, you do not have jobs. if you do not have jobs, you are not in a position to help people get out of poverty because there's no place for them to go. we have had policies which make it relatively easy to extend unemployment, relatively easier to have food stamps, but we are not helping people get back to a level of investment and productivity that creates the kind of jobs we need to get out of here. you look at japan, which has been in recession since 1989. look at greece, which has over 25% unemployment. spain, over 25% unemployment. i worry about a recovery that is not creating jobs and not pulling people into a better future. >> i'm going to get everyb
